Honesty, integrity and transparency. MHWF helps any horses who have found themselves in a transition in their life, whether that means that they wound up in a bad situation, neglected and/or abused, or their person could no longer keep them for whatever many different reasons that may be- they all need a place to go and they all need to be cared for and loved. Many horses wind up in very bad situations of neglect, and not only do we help horses out of those situations and set them back on the right path in their lives, we also aim to keep horses from winding up in those bad situations. We strive to help as many horses as we possibly can and this includes taking in, rehabilitating and finding great homes for horses, as well as helping people through education and helping hand when it is needed. MHWF is dedicated to ensuring that each and every horse gets everything they need which includes proper feed, medical care, training and emotional wellness that includes proper space and capacity for the very best care. MHWF is a no-kill shelter, which means we never have and never will euthanize for space, and there will be horses that may have a long stay at our facility. It's not just about the numbers of horses, it is the quality of care and placement that are paramount to truly be a successful mission of real horse rescue and adoption. MHWF finds safe and wonderful homes for horses, and at the same time, educating people about owning a horse and horse adoption. MHWF wants to see horse adoption be the route that more people choose when looking for an equine partner. We continue to add more ways of showing that rescued and adoption horses are just as great as any other horse out there, including a yearly Fun Show and also the Midwest Rescue Horse Trainers Challenge. MHWF has been doing real rescue and doing it right since 2001.
